NGC 1365 Revisited
Hello all
While I am optimistic that imaging will resume here in Omaha very soon, I have went ahead and reprocessed my 21 hours of data accumulated on this lovely galaxy.
http://www.martinpughastrophotograph...NGC1365New.jpg
LRGB, 12.5" RCOS and exposure were 720:210:210:210 on PME, AO-L guided.
thanks for looking
cheers

Oooohhh Martin, this is simply a delirious image. (Translated..... absolutely insanely awesome)
As I pick my jaw up from the desk top. 
Sooo many hours invested but what a finale.
Have to be the very best I've seen on this galaxy and a definite NASA picie of the day.
Cheers

Thanks again.
Yes, I know Fred, and I really prefer hi-res to low-res, but the FSQ/16803 combo can really do wonders on some of the larger vistas to be had.
thanks for commenting.
